A bit of fannish chatter in between breastfeeding.

Well, daddy and Green Pea are out cold, so it's time for mommy to take a little private time for fannish endeavours.

Since coming home from the hospital, we've been watching season 7 of DS9. It's been a wonderful time just breastfeeding and watching trek. Never too early to introduce Green Pea to the good stuff either. :oP

But with the coming of season 7, there is also Ezri. And I promised myself (and a few people on my flist) that I would keep an open mind about her. I have... and... well...

7 episodes in and I have formed my first impression of her. And I have to say... Ezri Dax... me no likey. But funny enough, I think I would like Ezri Tigan quite well! She's sweet and caring and surely not as confused as the mess she becomes after joining. Ezri Dax is an annoying chatterbox with little common sense left in her over-crowded cranium and for some odd reason there is WAY too much focus on her space sickness.

And I cannot even begin to say how unhappy I was with the Afterimage episode. That was just bad on SO SO SO many levels. And a Garak episode no less! In my view, the writers screwed Garak's character over completely in favour of Ezri's development. GAH!

As for the Ezri/Julian romance coming, I think the writers did that on a whim. There seemed to be absolutely NO hints of it in the early Ezri episodes. Even though Julian is supposed to be going gooey over everything with boobs, he can't even see Ezri that way and calls Quark crazy for suggesting it. Actually, I find it OOC for Julian. And what about the Sarina thing? One episode he's saying how he's found his perfect match and how he loves her and so on and so on... and only months later, suddenly, he's all over the woman he couldn't even imagine himself going for earlier? Confused...

Maybe Ezri is his rebound? Makes sense... War often makes people do strange things.

Fanfic quote of the day

The antidote he had provided Dukat worked perfectly… While also releasing a hormonal cascade that attacked the Cardassian's weakest point. The whole thing was a trap within a trap, something that he though Garak might be able to appreciate, if Julian was ever tempted to share this story.

He probably should feel guilty for murdering a man in cold blood, but his memories of Garak's condition made him too angry to bother. Julian's conscience may never be clear again, but his heart held no regrets.
